CMB and Cosmological Parameters: Current Status and Prospects [PDF]

, 2002
The last years have been an exciting period for the field of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) research. With recent CMB balloon-borne and ground-based experiments we are entering a new era of 'precision' cosmology that enables us to use the CMB ...

Cosmological Parameters from the 2003 flight of BOOMERANG

, 2005
We present the cosmological parameters from the CMB intensity and polarization power spectra of the 2003 Antarctic flight of the BOOMERANG telescope.

Noise Properties of the BOOMERANG Instrument [PDF]

, 2002
In this paper we report a short description of the BOOMERANG experiment explaining his scientific goal and the technologies implied. We concentrate then on the analysis of the noise properties discussing in particular the scan synchronous noise.

Constraints on Neutrino Degeneracy from the Cosmic Microwave Background and Primordial Nucleosynthesis [PDF]

, 2002
We reanalyze the cosmological constraints on the existence of a net universal lepton asymmetry and neutrino degeneracy based upon the latest high resolution CMB sky maps from BOOMERANG, DASI, and MAXIMA-1.

‘We Are Australia’: Unpacking Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People's Understandings and Experiences of Australian Identity

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are the oldest living custodians in the world. However, Australian identity has been purposefully established to exclude Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, contributing to systemic oppression and harmful consequences. Understanding the perspectives and experiences of Aboriginal and Torres

Benefits First: Consumer Trust Repair in Mobile Commerce

Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research, 2021
The purpose of this study is to explore trust repair strategies and the outcomes in mobile (m-)commerce. Consumer trust in m-commerce is a calculus-based form of trust; service failures, “inaction” and “excessive actions” are the typical trust decline ...

When Intrusive Can Be Likable: Product Placement Effects on Multitasking Consumers [PDF]

, 2011
Using movie scenes, this study examines how multitasking by viewers influences the product-plot integration effect. Findings indicate that multitasking dampens a well-integrated placement\u27s brand-enhancing effect and mitigates an intrusive placement ...

The Age of the Universe and the Cosmological Constant Determined from Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropy Measurements [PDF]

, 2001
If Omega_tot = 1 and structure formed from adiabatic initial conditions then the age of the Universe, as constrained by measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB), is t_0=14.0 +/- 0.5 Gyr.

State‐Level Politics in Forest Governance: The Role of the Narrative‐Policy Nexus in the Brazilian Amazon

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deforestation and its social impacts are an enduring challenge in agrarian frontiers, especially in the tropics. Fueled by global demand for commodities, this process is mediated by ideas, concepts, meanings, and policies that uphold socioenvironmental degradation. A key and understudied—arena in which this mediation occurs is the sub‐national
